Chapter 333 Are You Bullying Ava Again?!
However, anyone who could marry into the Whitman family was certainly no ordinary individual, so he felt there was no need for further investigation.
“Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Desmond. I’m Chloe Johnson,” Chloe greeted Desmond calmly and confidently.
Desmond found her composure comforting and gestured for her to take a seat and enjoy a cup of tea. Unaware of his intentions, Chloe elegantly raised the teacup to her lips and took a sip, relishing the lingering fragrance and the exquisite taste. Although she knew little about tea, she could tell it was of the finest quality.
“So, you are married to Harold’s eldest grandson?” Desmond asked.
Chloe’s face twitched slightly. “I…I am.”
He paused for a moment, then smiled kindly. “It’s normal for young couples to have arguments. Joseph is a remarkable talent of his generation. He’s worthy of your trust.”
Chloe could not argue with him and nodded awkwardly in agreement.
For the next half hour, Desmond engaged Chloe in casual conversation, discussing various topics. By the time she left the room, her head was spinning. Do all these big shots have so much free time? Should they not be utilizing their time for business matters rather than indulging in small talk with an insignificant figure like me?’
Noah’s gaze followed Chloe’s departure from the room, and he lowered his eyes as he said to Desmond, “I don’t think Joseph is suitable for her.”
Since the banquet was about to start, Chloe headed to the restroom where she bumped into Ava. Encountering Ava here, Chloe could not help but doubt the validity of Joseph’s words.
“Didn’t Joseph say that all the guests here are worth billions of dollars?” Chloe questioned herself, skeptical of Ava’s ability to achieve such a status.
“You wretched woman. How dare you appear before me!” Ava shouted, her voice piercing through the air. The haunting memories of her encounters at the bar flooded her mind, intensifying her anger to its limits. Swiftly and without hesitation, she raised her hand and delivered a resounding slap to Chloe’s cheek.
With the wall behind her, Chloe had no room to retreat. Despite her swift reflexes, her cheek still suffered a scratch from Ava’s long fingernails. Thankfully, it did not draw blood.
“Have you gone mad?!” Chloe exclaimed.
“I’m not the one who’s mad, but you can be,” Ava retorted.
It would be best if Chloe transformed into a disheveled madwoman, someone whom everyone would despise. That way, she would be the center of attention tonight. A sinister gleam. flickered in Ava’s eyes as she shifted her strategy. Determined to ruin Chloe’s appearance, she reached out in an attempt to grab her hair.
Chloe winced in pain as Ava forcefully yanked her hair, pulling out several strands. The searing pain made her inhale sharply, and her anger surged like wildfire. Being a woman who valued her beauty and image, Chloe knew she could not allow someone to lay their hands on her without fighting back.
In a defiant display, she flung her purse to the floor and gripped Ava tightly, forcefully ripping off Ava’s false eyelashes.
